Kihon DC 2.0

Master the Fundamentals. Perfect the Everyday.
Designed by American custom knifemaker Lucas Burnley, the Boker Plus Kihon DC 2.0 captures the Japanese principle of Kihon - the mastery of fundamentals - and translates it into a robust, modern everyday carry knife. Balancing precision, simplicity, and performance, this updated version refines Burnley’s vision with improved ergonomics and a lighter frame.
The satin-finished D2 drop-point blade opens smoothly on ball bearings via the removable thumb stud, delivering clean, reliable action for daily cutting tasks. The proven crossbar lock ensures intuitive handling and secure locking, whether for field work or everyday use.
A 15% reduction in weight gives the Kihon DC 2.0 the agility of a lightweight yet full-sized EDC, while the high-strength GFN handle with its textured square pattern offers confident grip and long-lasting durability. Subtle blue anodized accents around the pivot and handle screw elevate the design with understated elegance.
Equipped with a convertible tip-up wire clip and lanyard hole, the Kihon DC 2.0 is ready for versatile, reliable everyday carry - grounded in Burnley’s timeless belief that mastery begins with the basics.
